TI’s new FilterPro™ v3.0 design tool eases amplifier filter design

Bangalore (May 11, 2010) – Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI), today introduced the latest version of its popular FilterPro™ design tool. FilterPro v3.0 offers a new and improved user interface and a more accurate and robust filter design engine, thanks to updates, such as ability to adjust passive element tolerances and view response variations; scale passive component values; and view and export filter performance data to Excel. The tool allows designers to create and edit designs easily using the Filter Design Wizard. Users can design multiple feedback (MFB), Sallen-Key, low-pass, high-pass, band-pass and band-stop filters using voltage feedback op amps. FilterPro v3.0 is free and available for download now from TI’s website. To download FilterPro visit: www.ti.com/filterpro-pr .
